Description:

Rooster is just a hoot! I was told he is shy but he's not. He loves his foster brothers and sisters but is not you fond of the cat! (That could possibly change).

We have not done leash walking yet but he loves to chase both inside the house and out in the yard. He is quick so if there isn't a fenced yard for exercise he will need to be leash trained. He loves his humans and prefers to be touching them or at least have them within his sight. He will whine when left behind or when put into his crate at night but gives up and quiets down fairly quickly. I believe he may have been house broken previously as he knows what time do when he gives outside although he may did some marking in the house if there have been males in the house before. He is a tiny dog so the roughhousing is something to avoid and he may do best in a home with no small children. He hasn't taken an interest in toys (either squeaky or chew bones) but he is very treat motivated so may be easy to train basic commands or tricks) He chills easily because of his thin coat, especially his tummy which is just skin (perhaps he has Chinese Crested in his DNA).

Rooster is a very sweet by which will steal your heart the minute you lay eyes on him

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
